WHEN IM ANGRY

By manunkind

eyebrows plunge
eyes narrow into slits
every cloud gives itself to rain
and lighting strikes religious men
the earth is afraid, she shakes
tiles crumble
and
become
dust
people are sacrificed as martyrs
metalics melt
famine rages
tears become weapons
humanity as we know it
falls into anarchy
biohazard toxic waste
is dumped into air filters
hearts are ripped aztecian style
and munched on by
old gangrenous prisoners
the world kneels and begs for mercy
i am fire, water, wind and earth
i am artemis
animals lie down before me
and calmly wait to be eaten alive
civilization forgets the wheel
forgets the printing block
and forgets sliced bread
dizzy spells and anger ravage
humanity
like disease
swallowing the earth in
a sick hot suffocating cloud
men bleed at the eyes
and writhe in agony
women hang by their thumbs
with the cows
in a slaughter house

hyperventilation
mental masturbation
slimy cold sweat awakens my rage-
sanity envelopes my hot head
and once again
i become the silly, insignificant creature
that
i really am.
